The popular and multiple times sold-out Anxious Minds workshop is coming to Lucia studio!
Movement and breathwork for anxious minds: 2.5-hour workshop to offer people tools to regulate their nervous system.
The fast and demanding pace of modern life means that many of us spend a lot of time in our heads – it’s no wonder we’ve become disconnected from the wisdom of our bodies. This disconnect often leads us to feeling like our minds are constantly whirling, we find it hard to switch off and relax and we can get stuck in a loop of feeling tired yet wired.
This workshop will guide you through some gentle and soothing movement and breath practices to help you come back home to yourself, to a feeling of contentment and groundedness. You will leave with an understanding and embodied experience of a range of tools that you can integrate into your everyday self-care toolkit.
Everyone is very welcome to come exactly as they are to this workshop, to be themselves and explore practices to help calm the mind and ease the body.
A take home tool is included in the investment.
About your facilitator Alex MCDONALD
A constantly anxious mind and a disconnection from bodily wisdom led Alex on a journey to search for more embodied and connected ways of being. After exploring a range of practices from Yoga and meditation to Nidra and somatic therapy, Alex is now committed to sharing these tools with others. She has the firm belief that everybody deserves access to practical tools to feel happy and healthy in body and mind, with an emphasis on practices that can fit easily into peoples busy daily lives.
Alex is extremely grateful to have trained and spent time with some of the worlds best teachers and progressive thinkers globally, including Trauma informed yoga with Mei Lai Swan, Womb therapy and pregnancy yoga with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, Yin trainings with Karina Smith and Mark Pheely and Hatha Yoga training in India with Irene Ais and Josh Blau, amongst others.
The core to Alex’s philosophy is that we discover our inherent wholeness and humanness when we come into connection with one another through community, through this place of connection and trust we rise together and can be truly valuable to the world.
